Xbox: Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 or Grand Theft Auto: SA?

Hey everyone. I've never played any of the GTA games before and am trying to choose between GTA:SA or Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30, which I hear is an aweswome shooter. I prefer sports games but do play shooters from time to time. Opinions? Thanks.

I thought Brothers in Arms sucked and it just felt like the same 1) engage enemy, 2) flank, and 3) kill over and over. I didn't play more than 3-4 levels of the PC version before I quit.

...and I'm a huge fan of WW2 shooters like Call of Duty and Medal of Honor.

BIA is lame IMO. If you don't play much war FPS games (and I don't know how you couldn't, cause there's a ton of them), it might be a good game, but to me it's boring. If you've never played the GTA games then definitely get San Andreas!!

What they said. BIA was not as impressive as it should have been. I had high hopes..it let me down.

gta:sa is a lot of fun.

thankfully i cancelled my preorder of bia after reading some early reviews here from actual users not reviewers.

Go with Grand Theft Auto, more playable hours in that game than Brother In Arms, add to the fact Brother In Arms isn't really all that good.

Bump. Is GTA that good?
